This is a beautiful property, tastefully furnished with everything you need, and plenty of space. The kitchen is well equipped. Three bathrooms means no queuing for the shower. There is a lovely garden and the surrounding countryside kept our three children happy. The location is rural and there is nothing around but countryside and peace and quiet. Breakfast is a bonus which we didn't expect. Unfortunately as there is no local patisserie we missed our croissants for a few days. If you want an escape I highly recommend staying here. The hosts are friendly and helpful and made us very welcome.

A truly original French shabby chique farm house set in beautiful French country side, offering unique accomodation, two large double rooms both ensuite, furnished with antiques, also available as family rooms. Easy access to the main A10 Nord/Sud

The location is amazing and the house is unique!
We also run a Restaurant and have regular live music events.

It was a great house between the sunflower fields! Even though we arrived late in the afternoon Charlotte was kind enough to prepare for us a delicious 3-course meal. She was really kind and polite. I would love to go back to the house for a week or two. It was really great. I think the photos don't depict the beauty of the house and the scenery! P.S: if any couples are concerned, there is no bathroom door!

A wonderful rustic experience in a beautiful rural location which included some delicious home cooked food, live music performed from the heart, very free range chickens clucking under the watchful eye of their cockerel, characterful dogs and cats all very at home in the rural setting of the beautiful 3 storey farm house. Through the widows clad with characteristic long French shutters were views over the walled gardens, ponds and fields beyond. The interior is somewhat unique with an eclectic mix of paintings, mirrors, antiques, curiosities and old books ranging from Mrs Beeton to French painting to newer biographies of modern music legends, all sensitively displayed for visitors to feel they were sharing a very personal part of the house. Our bedroom was one of the family rooms and was huge and comfortable with crisply clean linen. It was entered from midway up the incredible wooden staircase which appeared to be made from trees of a few hundred years ago, quite fantastic. Charlotte, Glynn and their family were extremely welcoming and provided us with an excellent service from the minute we arrive. This was a perfect stop off point for us on our journey from Southern France to the UK, instantly peaceful and relaxing yet just a few miles from the autoroute. Would most definitely recommend a stay if you fancy somewhere incredibly charming and different with kind and conscientious hosts.

We had a very nice stay at Charlotte, a beatiful and peaceful place in a beautiful environment of the France country side. The house is amzaing and has a good atmosphere. The room was large and spacious and very quiet. Charlotte was very nice to us, a wonderful host and also provided us with a very nice dinner in the evening and a beautiful breakfast in the morning. We felt very welcome and had a very pleasant stay we would recommend and we will sure be back.

Incredible host and incredible food, so relaxing in makes you forget about everything else, but the crux of the matter here is Charlotte, Charlotte, Charlotte, what a host and what a cook and what talent, she has even done better than some of the very best French B&B that I have visited in the region. Incredible energetic talented woman - OH MY GOD..!

We hadden een geweldige tijd in het huis van de kunstenaar! De accommodatie is prachtig, waren we in staat om te genieten van het grote zwembad en de tuin de hele vakantie. De bewakers waren gedoe met ons. We will be back !!!

The drive in, walk past the pool to the front of the property and your holiday has begun. A lovely relaxing villa, the pool is clean and great fun for all. The house and pool house are just as described/pictured, most of our time was spent in great outdoor space. Loved it..

We received a very warm welcome on arrival from Charlie and Linda who live next door. They showed us round and were on hand if we needed anything. The pool was great and had plenty of use. The kids loved sleeping in the pool house. We enjoyed some fabulous weather and explored the nearby towns as well as a trip to Ile de Re. Thanks a lot and see you again!

We had a lovely week staying at the chateau! It was great fun to explore the gardens and house, swim everyday in the pool, have a BBQ or eat in the amazingly grand dining room. It was like being on a film set from the 1940s! The chateau is on the edge of a really pretty village but is so peaceful you'd never realise. It is not far to the local supermarket and the house is very well stocked with everything you might need for your holiday.

La Cachette
La Cachette is a tranquil Charentaise hideaway, set in its own substantial fully-enclosed grounds with a good-sized heated pool, large entertainment area suitable for families or groups of up to 6 or couples. Located in a small hamlet, the cottage is close to amenties in the nearby (2km) village of Sauze-Vaussais. The property is ideally situated for keen walkers and cyclists and those wanting to immerse themselves in our beautiful region with its many cultural attractions.

The house was humid and smells bad. The house was more that unclean. Indeed, there were hairs in the badroom, the windows was unclean and gruppy, there were a lot of dust everywhere in the house, the handle of the fridge and the dishwasher was stuck, the floor was not clean and under the bed it was worst, there were a lot of spiderweb. Another problem was the flies in the house. For example, it was impossible to eat outside because we were invaded by the flies in the food. It was also impossible to open the door or a window without being invaded by the flies. When we arrived in the house, the house was not ready for us (the gardener was still busy to clean the swimming pool when we arrived, despite the fact that we have booked the house a long ago). In conclusion, we are so disappointed by the house. We are used to travelling and it is the first time that we have a lot of issues like that! It was a nice house (for example, we had a good swimming pool ) but very unclean!! We suggest to the owner to find a solution for the flies and to revise the cleaning.

The cache is a cozy place to meet friends and spend a quiet weekend. A swimming pool and a well maintained terraces are available for sunny days and summer evenings for a friendly barbecue away from prying eyes. The kitchen is very busy and there lacks nothing, the beds are comfortable and the decor is lovely. The wifi is put at the disposal of guests. Mornings fat are assured because there are no virtually no noise around and you will definitely be awakened by the sun. The hosts have thought of everything! A welcome basket and fully stocked was offered to us and the little touches abound, we were there during the weekend of Easter and chocolates were placed almost anywhere in the room. We are very pleased with our weekend and we struggled from :) We strongly recommend La Cachette

We spent two wonderful days at Jason. The "stash" is the perfect place to retire in peace while enjoying the garden, terrace, swimming pool, etc etc ... and even a petanque !! We will come back ! We spent great time at Jason's house. It is the perfect place to-have quiet time and enjoy the nice garden, patio, BBQ ... etc etc We will come back for sure !!
